This Code of Practice lays down guidelines for the purchasing, (particularly for children) care and maintenance of leather, swede and canvas footwear as well as that of man-made materials.  It deals with the proper procedures for handling complaints.

This standard relates to the labelling of all footwear.

This standard specifies the requirements, labelling, storage and tests methods for footwear.

1.1         This standard specifies:

(a)          requirements for the manufacturing, alloying and testing of gold articles of 23, 22, 20, 18, 15, 14, 12, 10 and 9 kt gold;

(b)         requirements for findings and solders to be used in the manufacture of gold articles;

(c)          methods for assaying gold, alloyed gold, solder, findings and gold articles;

(d)         non-destructive testing of gold articles by X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF); and

(e)          requirements for making and labelling of imported gold articles.

NOTE 1 It does not specify requirements for design of gold articles and does not apply to gold articles intended for industrial purpose such as dentistry, electronics, official coins, gold bars and other such uses.

This document specifies the general requirements and tests for safety devices for fuel gases and oxygen or compressed air which do not incorporate a flame (flashback) arrestor used downstream of manifold, cylinder and/or pipeline outlet regulators, and upstream of blowpipes for welding, cutting and allied processes. This document does not specify the location of these devices in the gas system. This document is not applicable to safety devices which incorporate a flame arrestor, covered by ISO 5175-1.

This European Standard specifies a test method to determine the lastability of uppers or complete upper assembly irrespective of the material in order to assess the suitability for the end use.

This European has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 309 “Footwear”, the secretariat of which is held by AENOR. It shall be given the status of a national standard, either by publication of an identical text or by endorsement, at the latest by May 2002, and conflicting national standards shall be drawn at the latest by May 2002.

This European Standard specifies a test method for assessing the tear strength of upper, linings and insocks or complete upper assembly, irrespective of t material, in order to assess the suitability for the end use.

This European Standard specifies a method for determining the flex resistance of outsoles. This method is intended to assess the effect of sole materials and surface patterns on cut growth. This method is applied to outsoles that, in accordance with the test mentioned in Clasuse6, have a maximum longitudinal rigidity of 30 N.
